NIABEL DRINKER Speaking of a woman's tongue reminds us that Dinkey holds the record for speed in talking, some of which has been displayed in her Public Speaking, when we remember that curly haired people are said to be good natured, and red headed ones hot tempered, we understand why Dinky is so interesting. She is our cheeriest, jollist, most companion- able and an all round sport. In Chemistry she is usually found hanging out of the window for fear of an explosion, but never- theless, we are expecting great things from you Dinkey, so don't disappoint us. M ILDRED DANIELS Never Do Today What You Can A D0 Tomorrow ' What would the Class of '24 be without Tommy? She is the best pal a fellow ever had and a wonderful sport. When it comes to studying-well, there are things she likes better. There is only one thing Tommy cannot do, that is to get to class on time, but we attribute this to her carefree happy-go-lucky disposition. Some day in the Halls of Fame we expect to see Tommy's name among the great artists.

Another good work her fingers have accomplished is being a pianist of great promise. Her fingers, however, are not the only agile part of her make up for as a debater, Marie stood first among the girls in the Class of '23, and represented VARINA creditably at the University. As the beloved president of the Senior Class, Marie has headed most of the school activities this year and her charming person- ality will always be indelible on the minds of her fellow students. Success to you Sparky and may your store of energy always be directed into worth while channels. ISABELLA HALL A W omanir Tongue N ever C eases This is true of Isabella or Izzy, as she is generally known, for arguments are her chief hobby. She may be seen all hours of the day wandering aimlessly around looking for mischief or if she is not doing that she is found in the midst of a group of students telling the latest news: for Izzy is a regular Scandal Hound. If you are ever in trouble go to Izzy and she will console you by giving you a longer list of her mis- fortunes. Besides all of this Izzy is a good stu- dent Cif she feels like workingj, and as a proof of her ability to write just read her history of our class.

This is true of Waverly or Redd, as she is known to her friends, for arguments are her chief hobby. When we see a curly red head bobbing up and down and hear someone talking furiously you know it is Redd in an argument, and she usually comes out on top. Whether her name Redd applies to her beautiful hair or her disposition, we will leave to you to judge, anyway,she seldom leaves anyone in doubt as to her opinion of them. BENJAMIN HXUBBARD Benjamin, better known as Fatty, has been with us for a long while, starting the local grind in the vicinity of the Fourth Grade. His charming ways and pleasant smiles have found a permanent place in the hearts of his classmates, especially with a group of blond maidens. Amorous tendencies have not altogether composed the life of our Business Manager. His has been a full coterie of Junior League Programs, a leading part in social activities and an athletic endeavor that has netted for him a monogram. His spectacular guarding was material to many a basketball victory. This same tact in athletics transformed into business initiative, characterizes Benjamin, who we feel will some day demand the re- spect of the business world.
